The stallion selection committee for show jumping has granted KWPN-recognized breeding status to the world champion Vigo d’Arsouilles. The 12-year-old Nabab de Rêve son is out of a Fleuri du Manoir daughter. Vigo d’Arsouilles' registered party, Joris de Brabander, selected Philip Lejeune as the stallion's rider. The duo achieved an impressive series of wins, including the 2010 world championship in Kentucky.
The well-developed chestnut stallion, who is out of a strong dam-line, is approved by the sBs and is leaving his stamp on jumper breeding. Offspring from his first years at stud have already risen to the ranks of international show jumping; and last fall, his son Bernini was approved for KWPN breeding, having earned very high scores in the jumping components of his performance test.
Vigo d’Arsouilles is available for breeding through Dekstation Zwartjes in Raalte and through Joris de Brabander in St. Niklaas, Belgium. With his status as a KWPN-recognized stallion, Vigo d’Arsouilles foals are eligible for registration in the KWPN's premier book, the Foal Book.
